We are all striving to create a greener future for our children. Recycling, turning our heating down a couple of degrees, upcycling products rather than putting them to landfill… the list goes on and on of ways we can make a difference. We know how important it is to be as sustainable as possible so we can all enjoy the earth’s precious gifts for many generations to come.
When it comes to purchasing the things your baby needs, in an ideal world, we all would prefer to purchase new items, right? Does this go completely against being greener, being more sustainable?
Perhaps not with the Little Buds Forest Initiative from Baby Elegance.
Little Buds Forest
“We don’t inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.”
Kerin Ord.
Baby Elegance has pledged to plant a tree for every Baby Elegance cot or cot bed purchased to help to create a greener future for our children!
Just one of the Little Buds Forests in Roscommon, Ireland is a 2.24 hectare forest that Baby Elegance has already planted which will capture an estimated 1,478 tonnes of CO2 over its lifetime.
By planting native trees, Baby Elegance hopes to restore natural habitats for red squirrels, stoats, birds, and other native wildlife. Revitalising native woodlands brings so many great benefits to our environment and local communities, such as reducing flood risk, improving soil conservation, boosting biodiversity, and more. What’s even more fabulous is that you and your little ones can walk in these forests, which have so many health benefits too!
The Little Buds Forest is a first step in Baby Elegance’s commitment to creating a greener and more sustainable future for our children, and they hope to plant 25,000 native trees over the next 12 months in the UK and Ireland.
So, by purchasing your little one’s cot or cot bed from Baby Elegance you can help to support this initiative, ‘do your bit’ for the environment, as we all like to say. You also have that peace of mind that buying new for your little one is benefiting the environment and will ultimately help to secure their future on this planet.
